The sea suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
Having witnessed Bai Yu's insane behavior firsthand, they were indeed mentally prepared.
However, after hearing Bai Yu's reply with his own ears, he couldn't help but gasp.
Faced with the Beasts Pirates' Four Emperors Execution Order.
And then there's Jack the Drought, who personally came to hunt him down.
Bai Yu not only didn't choose to run away, but instead actively went hunting.
Once this news gets out, it will absolutely shock the sea.
Gion's expression changed repeatedly. Just as she was about to say something more, Yamakaji stopped her with a gesture.
"Forget about Vice Admiral Gion; it seems we all underestimated Admiral Bai Yu's madness."
"His style of doing things surpasses that of Vice Admiral Garp; now is not the time to stop him."
" The G-15 Branch is currently under attack by Jack the Drought. If Admiral Bai Yu were to intervene, it might be easier to repel him."
"As long as we leave before Kaido of the Beasts arrives, we should be fine."
this!
Gion's expression froze for a moment, then he spoke.
"Alright then, saving lives is the priority right now."
" Bai Yu, shall we set sail immediately?"
Bai Yu casually gulped down a mouthful of wine and smiled bloodthirstyly.
"Of course, the blood in my veins is boiling."
"That guy is someone worth killing."
A bloodthirsty fighting spirit spread through Bai Yu's body.
He exuded a chilling aura, showing absolutely no fear in the face of the Four Emperors.
This scene caused everyone in the room to tense up slightly.
Especially the pirates present, couldn't help but have an absurd thought pop into their minds.
If the Marine Fourth Admiral in front of us didn't have a sworn brother relationship with Ace.
Will they really take up their knives and slash at them?
"Kid, don't you want to chop me up?"
Whitebeard suddenly spoke.
Everyone's nerves immediately tensed up.
Gion and Yamakaji's entire body muscles were as stiff as a rock, and their faces were covered with gloomy Whitebeard.
They were genuinely worried that Whitebeard wouldn't let them leave so easily.
Facing the watchful eyes from all around, Gion and Yamakaji only hoped that Bai Yu wouldn't completely provoke Whitebeard because of their verbal sparring.
"I'll cut you down?"
Bai Yu gave a bloodthirsty smile, casually downed a swig of wine, and then said.
"You definitely deserve to be cut."
"If you'd like, I can kill you first, then go and deal with Jack the Drought."
This is insane!
A collective gasp filled the air.
Sure enough, the words they least wanted to hear came from Bai Yu's mouth.
A bitter look flashed across Gion and Yamakaji's faces.
Working under such a bloodthirsty and belligerent boss, anyone with a weak nerve would probably just faint.
To be able to say such things on Whitebeard's territory, and even in front of Whitebeard himself.
Perhaps only Bai Yu could do that.
However, at this moment, Gion and Yamakaji were simply eager to know.
How would Whitebeard react to this public provocation?
"Haha, what an interesting little rascal!"
The Whitebeard laughed loudly.
"You remind me of an interesting fellow from my old ship."
"Although he's not as bloodthirsty as you, he's still a warmonger."
"Will you be my son?"
"If you ever have nowhere to stay, feel free to come to the Whitebeard Pirates. I'll get you a Zeroth Division."
Zeroth Division?
The scene erupted into chaos.
Even captains like Marco were caught off guard.
As captains, they were able to take this position.
Each of them achieved this through immense effort and bloodshed.
Now, with Whitebeard's word, a new Zeroth Division will be established above the Sixteenth Division.
Does this mean that Bai Yu will join once he agrees?
His position will surpass theirs.
" Pops!"
Diamond Jozu panicked immediately.
However, he had only taken half a step when Marco reached out and stopped him.
Marco was indeed surprised by this decision, but now he was facing outsiders.
If we raise objections now, it will only give outsiders a glimpse of Whitebeard being humiliated by his own people.
Marco absolutely did not want to see something that would damage the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates.
"As your son?"
Bai Yu paused slightly in his steps, then smiled bloodthirstyly and shook his head.
"Sorry, I didn't create any hobbies for myself."
"These so-called identities are just shackles to me, preventing me from fighting as I please."
"If it weren't for Grandpa Garp and Ace, I would have quit the Navy long ago."
"Wouldn't it be better to Tenten carry a knife around and go find someone to chop up?"
"I've always longed for this kind of life."
"Men, it's getting late. It's time to find some worthwhile targets to cut down."
After saying this, Bai Yu took a swig of his drink and walked straight into the cabin.
Seeing Bai Yu disappear in an instant, Zoro and the others also dispelled their fighting spirit and immediately took the helm and left.
Gion and Yamakaji, while secretly relieved, exchanged a glance at each other.
Both of them detected a hint of seriousness in each other's eyes.
At that moment, they knew it clearly.
What Bai Yu just said was probably not just empty talk.
This reminds me of Bai Yu's bloodthirsty and warlike nature.
At this moment, they truly felt that their identity as naval officers was a shackle binding Bai Yu, this bloodthirsty and warlike beast.
As the two warships departed.
Marco and the others finally relaxed their tense nerves.
This was the first time they had ever realized how nervous they would be in front of a mere newcomer.
" Pops, is what you just said about Zeroth Division true?"
Diamond Jozu finally couldn't keep it a secret anymore.
Everyone looked eager.
After all, the Sixteenth Division has remained unchanged since the formation of the Whitebeard Pirates.
If we add a Seventeenth Division.
They may not harbor any resentment yet.
But to directly parachute a Zeroth Division Captain onto their heads...
This feeling of being ridden by outsiders.
They simply cannot accept this.
"Haha, you really are a bunch of fools." The Whitebeard took a swig of wine and laughed loudly, leaving everyone stunned.
"I was just testing that brat."
"If he actually agrees, I'm afraid I'll still look down on him."
"However, he does indeed qualify to be the Zeroth Division Captain; that kid's growth rate far surpasses yours."
"I initially thought Ace could hold his own against him, but it seems there's still a gap between them."
"However, his last sentence is not something to be doubted."
" Garp placing him at Marine Headquarters has indeed created an invisible shackle for him."
"If one day Bai Yu really leaves the Marine Headquarters, then this sea will probably be stained with blood."
